CAUTION!

 

Do not use the Winch in a 

constant duty application, it is designed for 

INTERMITTENT USE ONLY.  Keep the duration 

of the pulling job as short as possible.  If the 

motor becomes very hot to the touch, stop and 

let it cool down for several minutes.  Do not pull 

for more than one minute at or near the rated 

load.  Do not maintain power to the Winch if 

the motor stalls.  Double Line Rigging will help 

prevent overloading and should be used whenever 

practical.  See 

Double Line Rigging

 on page 11.

19. When finished pulling the load, reverse the direction 

of the Winch just enough to release tension on 

the Wire Rope so that you can unfasten the 

Hook from the load and reel in the Wire Rope.

CAUTION!

 Do not power the Hook all the 

way into the Fairlead to prevent damage.

20. Press and hold the ON/OFF button on the Wireless 

Remote for 3 seconds to turn the Remote off.  

The indicator light on the Remote will turn off.

21. If using the Wired Remote Control, disconnect 

the Remote Control Cable from the Remote 

Control Socket on the Receiver after use.

WARNING!

 To prevent serious injury from accidental 

operation, disconnect the red Circuit Breaker cable 

from the positive terminal on the battery after use.

Duty Cycle (Duration of Use)

at least 

14 minutes, 

15 seconds 

of rest

45 seconds winching

Avoid damage to the Winch by not winching 

for more than the prescribed duty cycle time. 

The Duty Cycle defines the amount of time, within 

a 15 minute period, during which a Winch can 

operate at its maximum capacity without overheating.  

For example, this Winch with a 5% duty cycle at its 

maximum load must be allowed to rest for at least 

14 minutes, 15 seconds after every 45 seconds of 

continuous operation.  Failure to carefully observe 

duty cycle limitations can easily over-stress a 

Winch contributing to premature Winch failure.

FCC STATEMENT

Caution: The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for 

compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, 

including interference that may cause undesired operation. 

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to 

Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference 

in a residential installation.  This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not 

installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.  

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by 

turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the 

following measures:
•  Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
•  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
